Updating content types

To update a content type that is already registered on a hub, open the content types window by choosing "Content types" from the Development tab in the Dynamic Content app. Select the content type you want to update from the list and choose "Open" from the contextual menu.

Open displays the Register Content Types window for this type, allowing you to add or modify icons, cards and visualizations, together with the repositories on which this content type is enabled and the content type label.

In the example below, the content type already has an associated icon and card.

To update the card used for this type, hover over the card icon and click the pencil icon to open it for editing.

The card details already set up for this content type are shown.

You can then choose another of the standard cards or you might want to enter the URL for your own card. In this case the Summary photo card was used and we want to use the Photo card instead. To do this we choose the photo card and map the image it displays to the background property of the banner content type. Click the "Save" button at the top of the window to apply the changes.

The changes will be applied and in this case content created using the Feature banner type will now be represented by the Photo card when shown in the Content Library.
